Elmer G Letterman

"Personality can open doors, but only character can keep them open."

Have you ever had to deal with someone of questionable character?  They lie, cheat, steal?  It's kind of hard to confront someone like this because they never admit to anything...  Sometimes it's best to just keep your distance...  Otherwise dealing with them can be draining...

Joseph Campbell

"When you follow your bliss...  doors will open where you would not have thought there would be doors; and where there wouldn't be a door for anyone else."

I think this quote is very similar to the one about following your heart to find true happiness.  Some people follow their heart and some people follow their head.  Which is better?  Are you finding your happiness?

Turkish Proverb

"Kind words will unlock an iron door."

Kindness is a very good quality to have but very hard to practice sometimes.  There are some people out there that simply don't respect other people's boundaries.  It's hard to react to someone like that with kindness.

"The doors we open and close each day decides the lives we live."

How true is that?  Remember Pandora's Box...  Well there are some doors that you don't want to open...  And then there are some doors that you do however you have to be willing to take the risk.  Have you ever seen the movie Sliding Doors?  Well it's a movie about the choices we make...  If possible try to be proactive rather than reactive...

Colossians

1:13-14

"For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."

What does Easter mean to you?  I know what it means to me...  It's a celebration of someone that died on the cross and was resurrected...  He did what no one else could...  You have a choice...  You can believe or you can choose not to believe...  Is that a risk that you are willing to take?

George Washington Carver

"Education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom."

Without George Washington Carver we would have no peanut butter.  In fact if you have never read his biography then you should.  He came up with so many uses for the ordinary peanut although he didn't actually invent peanut butter in and of itself.

"Happiness is something that comes into our lives through doors we don't even remember leaving open."

What is it about closed doors and open windows?  Or is it closed windows and open doors?  A lot of times in our lives we close doors and open new ones but sometimes a closed door from our past may open up somewhere down the road...  I don't know?  How do you feel about open and closed doors?  I think it may depend on who closed the door, don't you think?
